arXiv:2607. 27000v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Optimization in non-convex neural network models is strongly influenced by the geometry of the solution space: sparse, isolated, point-like clusters are typically algorithmically inaccessible, whereas wide and flat regions can be found efficiently despite being relatively rare.
arXiv:2608. 11911v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A central promise of useful quantum advantage is the ability to compute ground states of Hamiltonian systems beyond the reach of classical simulation methods.
The review explores how control theory, optimal transport, probabilistic inference, non‑equilibrium thermodynamics, and machine learning are interconnected through the optimization of free‑energy‑like functionals under dynamical or statistical constraints. It presents a conceptual thread linking these five fields and illustrates the ideas with applications in reinforcement learning, variational inference, and generative modeling. The article is written for readers without prior familiarity, beginning with physics principles.
arXiv:2607. 11555v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning neural set functions is pivotal to a wide range of important applications, including compound selection in AI-driven drug discovery and product recommendation.
arXiv:2609.15894v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Some of the sharpest challenges in sampling from the energy functions of physical systems arise at phase transitions, where the density of states cha...
